It seemed like the refs are fans of the Titans.

After Henne threw yet another pick Griffin fell down (untouched) so Miami wouldn't try to strip the ball and Camarillo came in (whistles weren't blown) and touched him to down him and they say it's a 15 yard penalty.

Than Miami held up Johnson and Taylor's there and strips him but they blew the whistle as Johnson was going down. Really?

Miami played like crap today but the refs really screwed them over in OT.

Agree 100%. I don't see how it was not obvious that noone ever touched Griffin, and that the receiver merely did so to ensure that he was down. With that flag the refs put Bironas well within his range and essentially gave Tennessee the game. Weak call and weak way to end the game.

Not sure about the strip call, too hard to see when forward progress ended and then whistle blew, but the late hit flag was complete bull****.

Titans won fair and square. Now the Packers and Bears need to step up.

Well from my replay it was blown as Johnson was being tackled. Like as he was going down. Taylor stripped it right before he went down.

Then you may very well be right, I didn't take the time to replay it so I couldn't tell you, figured the game was already over at that point.

It was nearly blocked.
I know Collins is a solid FG kicker and I said from the position he was in the only way he'd miss is if it was blocked.

You mean Bironas? And yeah, he wasn't missing from that close.
